Cledus went down to Florida, he was lookin` for a car to steal
He was in a bind, ten payments behind, so the bank repo`d his wheels
When he came across this old man down at Jalopy`s Used Car Lot
Then Cledus jumped up on the top of one and said, "Feller, let me tell ya what
Now I`m not gon` be proud of the deed I`m `bout to do
Well, no time to spare, I gotta be somewhere, so I`m gonna steal a car from you
Now I`ve seen you`re selection here, and I admit the pickins are few
I know the Pinto`s gold, but consider it stoled, `cause I got a show to do."
The man said, "My name`s Jalopy," as he gave an evil grin
`Cause he knew that car wouldn`t get too far `fore the motor blew up again
Cledus you better hit the road if you`re gonna be a star
The show`s way up in Georgia, and you`re op`nin up for Garth
You`re future`s ridin` on this shiny Pinto painted gold
And if you`re late it`s Jeff Foxworthy`s show
Oh gosh! A pinto my foot. It drives more like a horse and buggy. Dern!
Cledus said, "No way in heck he`s gonna op`m up that show."
Then fire flew from the manifold as his right front tire blowed
Then he pushed that wreck across the street, `n man was Cledus tissed
And he tried `n tried to start `er up, but it sounded somethin` like this
.......Come on,...come on,...oh gosh! I`m in a mess.
What am I gonna do?
My one big shot for Garth Brooks.
Aw-hehe-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo, oh dern it!
When Cledus opened up the hood, he said, "I`ll be a son of a gun!"
And it didn`t take long to figure out why the heck it wouldn`t run
Fire from the engine, lots of smoke
He can already hear them redneck jokes
Dadblamed oilpan layn` in the road
Will he make the show? Heck no, heck no!
Ho-ho. (whistle) Taxi, Greyhound, yeller cab, somebody!
I`ll show him a redneck.
He`ll have a red neck when I get my hands around his throat.
I`m sick of it.
Cledus shook his head as he watched Foxworthy`s show
And he heard him joke of how he passed a burnin` old Pinto
Then later on, Garth told Cledus, "You`ll never get the chance again."
As he gave the check to that derned redneck who drove a Mercedes Benz
He said, "Tough break big guy. Before I go,
Would ya like to hear another redneck joke?
Did you know I got my own t.v. show?"
Well, does anybody watch it? No, heck no!
Well, you might be a redneck if your momma and daddy catches ya out behind the barn whippin` Jeff Foxworthy for talkin` about rednecks all time.
Ah shoot, I`m jes kiddin` Jeff.
I wished I could be your best friend. Do you like me? I`d love to be on your t.v. show.
Come here to me!
